  • Re: UConn 2013-2014: Let the Cavanaugh Era Begin

    AIC lived up to every bit of their reputation last night. Gritty win for the Huskies. The big question, of course, is can they repeat that performance tonight? Gotta think AIC will be at least as tough or tougher.

      Listening on line it sure sounded like an ugly win, but they count just as much as the pretty ones. The radio guy seemed to be pretty animated about some scoreboard malfunctions. Anybody there that knows what was happening? Sounds like the Huskies last trip to the Olympia was memorable.

        Playoff hockey time is here. It may not exactly be win and advance, but it might as well be. This is the phase of the regular season that will set the team up for success (or lack thereof) in the tournament. Nicely done tonight, Huskies. This is starting to feel even better than last year.

          Thought the team worked hard for this win. Although ugly and they hung on at the end, a sweep is a sweep.

          With all of the travel and distractions, they need at least 2 points this weekend.

            Former travel partner in the ECAC East where every game with them was a war. Just about every game with AIC has been ugly over the decades. Gary Wright seldom has as much talent as UConn, but he always knows how to give the Huskies a very very tough game.

            I disagree on next weekend's series. If the Huskies are going to set themselves up to win the AHA tournament, they need at least three points against Air Force. Very hard to do as history shows, but it has to be done now.

              Interesting weekend coming up in league play, top 4 seeds all doing battle with each other. Love the close to playoff feel these next few weeks. Stay hot and keep RMU at bay, talk about a hot team right now.

              Love the fact that Latta, Sims, and Harris all seem to be turning it on in their last career stretch run. What a great class that was huh, imagine if Schneider was still here? Scary

                AIC is UConn's oldest hockey rival. They were the first varsity game UConn played when the program was created in 1960. I think that comes into play somehow when the two teams get together. It is rarely a walkover.

                  Congrats on your new commit. Spencer Naas from BSM high school is a speedy sniper who is fun to watch.

                    Dick, If you gave me 3 points right now I'd load everyone back on the plane and head back to Bradley! I think that's a tough place to play but this team has shown some guts the last 2 weeks. I'd love 4 points but a couple of ties or 1-1 wouldn't be the end of the world either.

                      Thanks for the heads up.

                        Let's see what they've got. Back to the eastern pod next weekend. Crunch time has started. This is the part of the season that everybody lives for.

                          Sounded like a great win last night, although losing the territorial advantage, they buried 25% of their chances.

                          One loss in January and momentum heading into the final stretch. Hard not to be excited for this stretch run.

                          Let's finish the sweep tonight boys, Go Huskies!

                                Big move by the Uconn coaches last night starting the freshman between the pipes. Hopefully they will put him back in net tonight. Uconn will go as far as the under classmen will take them this year.
